| This month we invited Dr. Ron Taylor from the Fish & Wildlife Research Institute (I think that's what they call it now). Anyway, he's the Snook Doctor. he has been the leading snook research biologist for more than 20 years.
Ron was as entertaining as he was educational. They have been tagging snook and logging migration patterns in rivers on both sides of Florida. In a 3 yr span, they found that not all snook migrate out of the river in the spring as we all once thought. In fact, one fish they tagged never left the river in 3 years. Another fish left the river in the middle of winter. The most amazing story was of one snook tagged on the east coast that showed up on the west coast. It is thought that he made the journey through Lake O! Absolutely incredible information we all learned that evening.
Our monthly Goomba was held at the south end of the Skyway today.
It turned out to be a pretty bearable day despite the blustery conditions. We did well to stay in a protected bayou most of the day. There were plenty of fish for everyone!




Cheryl found a nice little beach for our shore lunch but she kept escaping from the camera lens. The Cheryl is an illusive creature but they do exist.

The guys were made to stay in the water.

Thanks to everyone for braving the weather forecast. Next month will be better, I promise.

| An excellent day of fishing! For any who kayak these get togethers are a blast and a wonderful way to meet others who enjoy kayak fishing.
